Two weeks ago, I posted some infra red photographs at Samson Park. This week, let’s see how the park looks with regular falls colors. Walking down from light rail in the morning, I was greeted by the fall colors against the blue sky.

After work, I stopped off at Samson Park before the sun set. This summer, a dome-like sculpture constructed from vines was completed. The park is home to several rabbits that scampered everywhere as I strolled through. However, the rabbit below was quite happy munching away at the grass while I was making photographs.

Walking around the pond, I reached the black fence at the southern end.

The hedge of burning bushes have turned to the burning red fall color. The Ciber buiding was reflected in the pond in the light of the setting sun. I used the burning bushes to frame the building’s reflection.

The last rays of the sun lit the dome and the grass at its base. These were reflected in the still surface of the pond.

There is an interesting wind sculpture that moves as it catches a breeze. Here it takes the appearance of a mohawk. I like the way the sun is reflecting off the vanes.

The sun was almost on the horizon. I laid down on the ground under the dome. I groveled around until the sun was obscured by the vines to form a silhouette as the sun was setting.
